Theme For Joel Osteen Devotional 23rd January – Hang in There!
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.
2 Corinthians 4:17, NKJV
TODAY’S WORD:
Does there seem to be a problem waiting for you no matter where you turn? Do you sometimes wonder if your dreams are ever going to come to pass? Maybe you’ve asked why God would allow you to struggle in your job, your relationships, your health or some other area of life. Sometimes God allows us to go through challenges because He knows it’s the struggle of life that builds strength in us. If God simply delivered us from every struggle, then we might not continue to grow and learn to trust Him. When you stretch your faith, endure, overcome and persevere through the difficult times, you’ll begin to realize a greater level of joy, peace, victory and abundance than you ever dreamed possible. Remember, God loves you too much to leave you where you are. He’s preparing you for something better!
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
God, thank You for giving me what You know I need. Help me to learn and grow through my struggles as I trust You to bring me out stronger than ever. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
